Grief and loss are a part of the human condition. Grief is typically considered to be brought on by the death of a loved one, but can also be triggered by any significant life-altering loss (such as a divorce or the loss of a job). Grief is a natural response to loss, but that doesn’t make it easy to deal with. Symptoms of grief may include sadness, loneliness, anger, denial, depression and a myriad of other thoughts and feelings. There is no “normal” amount of time for grief to pass, but if you find that your grief is not improving over time or that it is interfering with your everyday life, you may want to consider seeking professional help. A qualified grief counselor can help you to cope with the physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and cognitive responses to loss. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s grief experts today.
Psychotherapy can provide much-needed relief from symptoms and promote well-being crucial to overcoming adversity and past traumas. My clients are usually high functioning on the outside, but in deep distress on the inside. We will bring this distress into the therapy room, where it is contained and observed. I see survivors of trauma, clients experiencing relationship issues, difficulty expressing emotions, men's issues, and those with postpartum depression.

My work is rooted in the belief that every person has inherent worth and the potential for transformation. In therapy, I tailor my approach to each client’s specific needs, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), attachment theory, and mindfulness practices. By blending these techniques with a faith-based perspective, I aim to provide care that feels both practical and spiritually grounded.

Most of my clients are smart, creative and savvy professionals, and they usually have a pretty good sense of why they're seeking help. It may be due to relationship challenges. It may due to managing ADHD, depression or anxiety. It may be due to managing the pressures of work or of family. What my clients have in common is the desire to work closely on their challenges, and the ability to make a connection with their therapist, in this case, me!

Many of my clients learned to be independent, responsible, and hardworking at young ages, traits that have helped them be successful at school and work, but have made it difficult to ask for help, set boundaries, rest, and lean into joy. Along with anxiety, clients frequently struggle with guilt, low self-esteem, a need to be perfect, and often have insecure attachment styles in relationships. I also provide family therapy, friendship therapy, and psychological evals for immigration cases.

You put on a brave smile and say you’re fine when you know you’re not. You’re exhausted because you’ve been carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. You’re isolated because you don’t recognize the woman you see in the mirror. You’re confused because you’ve lost sight of who you are. Even the relationships you care most about are now draining you. All your duties just keep piling on and you’re forced to keep bearing through it. Therapy can help untangle life's messiness.
